The Lavalin issue(s)

Description: This past week, Parliament was dominated by just what Justin Trudeau may – or may not – have done to intervene in the so-called Lavalin affair. If we look at SNC-Lavalin’s recent history, however, we quickly realize the engineering firm is no stranger to controversy. The stakes are high in the charges it faces regarding the corruption scandal in Libya. If found guilty, SNC-Lavalin will be barred from federal government contracts for 10 years.
